Inaugural MADC + Mr Smith Art Show a success

Last week the Melbourne advertising and design fraternity gathered at Mr Smith in Richmond to catch up over a drink or two and view some of their colleagues work created out of hours.

More than 90 people were at the event, which also saw numerous pieces sold throughout the evening.

Art works were shown from creative directors including Ant Keogh and Andrew Woodhead, photographers Mike Reed and Hugh Peachey plus designers Damian Kelly and Paul Theobald and many talented young creative – and even a suit or two.

Mr Smith producer Helene Nicol said the event was a huge success and she is looking to make it an annual fixture on the MADC social calendar.

Says Nicol: “It’s such a great opportunity to see what people from the industry can do in their down time.”
